'The Matrix' retold by mother, animated - viral video

A mother's summary of The Matrix has been animated with amusing results.

After YouTube user pixelspersecond watched the Keanu Reeves classic with his mom, he asked her to describe what happened in the movie.

The son then put together an animation depicting her retelling of events.

In the video, she struggles to recall Morpheus's name ("Moshimo"), debates whether or not Neo is gay, and gets confused about the ending ("I know Neo and the girlfriend were alive. Was everyone else killed?").

The animation has become an online hit, with more than 600,000 views since it was posted yesterday (May 1).
